Skateboarding and more ….
In celebration of Earth Day, we thought you might like to see some of the cleanup action at Pier Park last Saturday. The weather was perfect for the cleanup activities. Thanks to everyone that came out and helped. The park looks great. Check out some photos after the turn.
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Rocco Caravelli, has been putting some time in at the park. The frontside invert above is one of his newly acquired skills. Check out more of Rocco’s antics at Glenhaven after the turn.
Congratulations Rocco!
We printed and shipped the last batch of Lincoln City Snake Benefit shirts. So if you haven’t seen your shirt yet, it’s in the mail. Thanks again to everyone who supported the t-shirt effort and to the Lincoln City crew for one ill skatepark. We raised in the neighborhood of $500 for the park. Check out some photos of the shirt printing process after the turn.
So guess who watched Rising Son: The Legend of Skateboarder Christian Hosoi? Yep, Grover did. The session is always fun when Grover is in the mix. More pics of Rising Grover-son at Battle Ground after the turn.
Newsflash: Grover’s Video Korner stickers available at Skate and Annoy.
Yep, it’s that time again. This Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. is the annual Pier Park cleanup. See more details over at Antigravity Press. Come on out and show your support for one of Portland’s great skateparks. Check out a few pics of MC, Anna, Shawn and the soon-to-be-removed graffiti after the turn.
If you ride at Pier Park, you might recognize these folks. Veronica and Mike shred Pier on a daily basis. Check out a few pics of the Swims as they get their skate on. EPM Out!
So what music did Salba and D.P. start to explore when they grew tired of the early punk scene? Here’s a hint from an early 80’s television segment. Check out this week’s YouTube Tuesday clips dedicated to the early 80’s Steve and Duane after the turn. (Head shots courtesy of Independent Trucks)
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Mike Shearer, takes advantage of the longer days and improving weather. Check out Mike’s stylin’ wall ride during a recent twilight session at Glenhaven. See another pic of Mike in classic form after the turn.
Congratulations Mike!
Yeah, that’s it, bowling. Check out Mike and Ben during a twilight session at Glenhaven after the turn. Bowling is fun.
There’s nothing like a sunny day at the skatepark. Combine great weather with a great park like Pier Park and you have yourself an epic day, hands down. Check out Kevin and Geth having an epic day after the turn….
